This style of match was in use during the Civil War. You could just snap one off as needed or break up the sheet and fill your match safe. We came across an entire block of them and are offering individual 'sheets'. They look great in any CW personal item display or at living histories. I have seen these go for $25-$35 at relic shows and through online dealers. Now's your chance to pick up a 'sheet' of your own!
